Kowhatu Toi

Part 2 of Kowhatu Toi

Through out this week we finally started to paint on our rocks,

We are painting 3 rocks so we are giving them to 3 people for a gift the three people i'm giving my stones to once I finish them is.

• My Koro 
• My Mum and my step dad Mick (I'm giving one to both of them to share)
• My Dad and Sarah (I'm giving one to both of them to share as well)

Here are pictures of my stones!

This is all three of them now I'm going to show use which one is going to Who

This one is going to my Koro 

This one is going to my Dad and sarah

And this one goes to my Mum and my step dad Mick

( It sort of looks like an Easter egg because of the shape of the rock LOL)

So those were all of my rocks Hope you like them.

But I still need to finish painting my other 2 rocks that are going to, My mum, my step dad Mick and My Dad and Sarah.

But I should at least finish one of them today when we start Painting :)

And I still have Tomorrow to finish to.

Stone Art!

For the past week so far, the year 7's and year 8's have been doing an arts Kete.

I got put in stone art (because I wasn't at school when we got to choose what we wanted to be in but that's ok).

Yesterday in stone art I Learn't about the Puhoro ,and the MangoPare (MangoPare  represents the Hammer Head Shark).

Here's some photos I got of me drawing the Puhoro, Mangopare, RitoRito, The Koru, and the Niho Taniwha, 

Hope you like them.   

Here's the Koru art

I like the top left side of the koru design I drew. I am very proud of it!.

another drawing i done with Koru's

I'm proud of myself for this one. It looks pretty cool!.

The Niho Taniwha

 

I think I could do better next time. 

Here's the Mangopare

I sort of stuffed up but its not bad for my first time drawing this form.

Here's RitoRito

(The RitoRito in this picture is the type of triangles in the spiral).

pretty COOL I done well for this one!

Last but not least the Puhoro

Not exact what it looks like but I think i was close.

Whea Mel gave us Work books so me and the rest of the group who is also in stone art can do all this practicing of the art we want to do on the Stones. ;)

So far I think there pretty good this is all to practice for before we start drawing what Maori form drawings on the stones ( that we want to draw ).

If you think my drawings are pretty good thank you. I think I could do better when I practice them more but I should be good maybe, maybe not who knows until I have finished what I decide to draw on my stones. :)
